Jesus answered, I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me. John 14:6.

“This is one of the most basic and important passages in scripture. How can we know the way to God? Only through Jesus. Jesus is the way because he is both God and man. By uniting our lives with his, we are united with God. Trust Jesus to take you to the Father, and all the benefits of being God’s child will be yours. Jesus says he is the only way to God the Father. Some people may argue that this way is too narrow. In reality, it is wide enough for the whole world, if the world chooses to accept it. Instead of worrying about how limited it sounds to have only one way, we should be saying, “Thank you, God for providing a sure way to get to you!” As the way, Jesus is our path to the Father. As the truth, he is the reality of all God’s promises. As the life, he joins his divine life to ours, both now and eternally.”

Life Application Study Bible, NIV.

 Our small group is currently engaged in a Bible study, Attitude Adjustment. Our primary focus is a thirteen week study on the Sermon on the Mount. The purpose of the study is to build community within the body of believers around Jesus Christ. It also provides the opportunity for us to share our stories with one another. We’re having fun and it is really awesome how God is revealing himself to us through His Word.

In January, my wife and I were handed the baton of a nursing home ministry at our church called Savannah Courts. The messages are brought monthly by the men at Village Baptist Church. April will mark the fourth month and things have been going really well. We had an outstanding message brought by Jim Carr our Director of Education and Administration with music led by Joe Webb. Praise the Lord for his infinite wisdom and goodness.

This was shared with me so I thought I’d share it with you. It’s called, Can You Sleep While the Wind Blows? (http://www.hall4bc04.org/Storm.htm) Until next month, be blessed and Amen.
